SHIFTARGIN

Shift input arguments conditionally

   ARGOUT = SHIFTARGIN(ARGIN,CONDITION,NPAR)

Input
ARGIN	Cell array with function input arguments (VARARGIN)
CONDITION	Type of first argument, e.g. 'double','char','prmapping'.  'scalar' and 'vector' are allowed as well. See ISSCALAR.  'vector' holds only for numeric row vectors.  'integer' for integer doubles or INTX variables.  'last' tests whether argument NPAR is the last in the call.  This can also be a cell array of conditions. If one of them  holds it is fulfilled.
NPAR	Argument number in ARGIN to be tested.

Output
ARGOUT	If CONDITION is false ARGIN, else [{[]} ARGIN]

Description

Function input arguments stored in ARGIN, usually VARARGIN of the calling  function, are conditionally shifted to avoid the need to add superfluous  empty placeholders ([]) as the first argument in mapping definitions.  Shifting will be skipped if the second argument is a trained mapping.
